So Jordan and I are having fun with our local KumoriCon this weekend, and to our happy surprise, Media Blasters/Kitty Media is here-- and managing editor Frank Pannone as well. He told us a little tidbit about Crimson Spell: some fans have whined about the romanization of the main character's name as "Bald," which was apparently chosen by Ayano Yamane-sensei. Well, now Sensei has come back to Kitty and said "oops," because she has since realized what "bald" means in English. They will be reprinting Crimson Spell volume 1 with the new romanization, which if I remember correctly will be "Vald."

In other news, we got a press release for Yaoi Magazine, a new "Western, English speaking fan's lifestyle magazine." The 18+ bi-monthly publication will include art, fiction, and articles starting with their first issue in November. Hit the jump for the full press release if you want.

They are currently accepting submissions for fiction, articles, manga, centerfold art, and any other ideas they might like, with a due date of October 1st.

Read the press release.
